binder Launches NCC Connector Family with Protection Even When Unmated
binder introduced a new family of circular connectors designed to protect sensitive interfaces from dust, dirt, and moisture even when left unmated. The Not Connected Closed (NCC) range covers the company's 670 (subminiature) and 770 (miniature) series .
Key Innovation:
A spring-loaded plastic cover automatically seals the contacts of the female panel-mount connector once disconnected, preventing contaminants from entering the interface.
Protection Ratings:
Series 670: IP54 unmated / IP67 mated
Series 770: IP67 in both states
Mating cycles: 1,000+ (670) / 5,000+ (770)
Medical-Grade Option:
The 770 series is available in a grey-white, DEHP-free plastic version that is biocompatible to ISO 10993-5, meeting regulatory requirements for medical technology.
Jana Wagner, Product Manager at binder, stated: "With the binder NCC family, we combine high protection requirements with simple handling. Our goal was to develop a solution that offers maximum protection even when unmated while remaining robust and intuitive to use."
